League of Supporters of Indonesian Independence

The League of Supporters of Indonesian Independence (IPKI) was a populist political party in Indonesia that existed from 1954 to 2002. The party was founded by General Abdul Haris Nasution as the party representing the interests of the military in politics, and it encouraged President Sukarno to return to the 1945 constitution, rejecting Western democracy in favor of a traditional democracy based on the village system. The IPKI was known for its anti-communism and right-wing populism, and it lost support after military ruler Suharto's 1998 resignation, dissolving in 2002.
